Changing ownership of a symlink changes target instead

[jelly]

1. Right click a symlink and click edit permissions
2. Change owner/group
3. Click change

See that the owner/group of the symlink did not change, but the symlink target did change.

The target of the symlinks owner/group does change, the question is, should we always change the target or pass --no-dereference so a user can change the owner/group. As a symlink itself is always 777.
